nothing wrong with Dupont paints, or PPG. I use R&M at work. Whatever you do dont cheap out you will regret it in the future. but the regular paint line not a value line. if you do go single stage check out R&M paint line called UNO it has a lifetime warranty but color choice is limited compared to their base coats

if you want it exactly like original, install the intake, oil pan, valve covers and timing cover and paint it . .

the bolt that holds the fuel line tro the water pump does not get paint.

if i am not doing a car that will be jufged for originality, i often do not paint the intake, oil pan, valve cover or water pump bolts.

a 64 threu 67 are dark blue.

i want it like original but it's not a car who will be judge for a concours show !

you said 64 - 67 dark blue but also my 68 ?

and what is the best kind of paint to match closer the original blue !
POR15 , dupli-color ?
